To celebrate the upcoming December release of Robert Eggers’ highly anticipated film, Nosferatu, Heretic Parfum is releasing a limited edition scent that is equally captivating as the film.
Inspired by the film, the custom scent, “Nosferatu,” is a collaboration between Focus Features and perfumer Douglas Little. Through viewing the film, historical research, and understanding the era, Little captured the film’s essence in a fragrance.
A scent as atmospheric as the film, the perfume transports the wearer into the dark spaces inhabited by Count Orlok himself. The Eau de macabre opens with top notes of lilac and ambrette seed that fall into a heart chord of violet, orris root, and petrichor. The mysterious dry-down is woven around vegan ambergris and Oud absolute. Described as “cold, pale, and pellucid,” the fragrance evokes the uneasy chill of encountering an apparition.
Each 30ml bottle’s cap is engraved with Count Orlok’s sigil. It is packaged in an exquisite black coffee with printed fragrance notes and inspiration. This limited-edition release is sure to be highly collectible for any cinephile, vampire enthusiast, or lover of Nosferatu.
Heretic Parfum’s limited-edition “Nosferatu“ will be available for $125 beginning on Thursday, October 31, Halloween.
Robert Egger’s Nosferatu sees Lily-Rose Depp’s Ellen wrestle with anguish as Orlok’s spell pulls her in. She seeks answers from Willem Dafoe’s Professor Von Franz, but is it too late? Meanwhile, bloodcurdling imagery and a city gripped by fear paint a vivid picture of the horror to come. Nicholas Hoult also stars along with Bill Skarsgård as Count Orlok. Ralph Ineson, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, and Emma Corrin round out the impressive cast.
Nosferatu will be released in theaters on December 25, 2024. It promises to be a chilling experience that will haunt you long after the film ends.
